National games (not a problem usually, unless they throw it on NBA TV) plus 7 or 8 games against Lakers/Clippers are blacked out. So if they only have one national game, that's still 9 games out of 82 that I don't get to watch, even though i don't even live in **** LA.

You don't have Spectrum or Fox SD?


I haven't had cable in like... 20 years.

It does feel like a waste of money these days.

We look awful every time we go point Book. Just bring Jerome into the game.

I'm not about to pay like... $80 a month for the luxury of watching 60% commercials.

Fox is crushing it out there, he's amazingly quick.

Book struggling against Bogdan a bit, too.

Saric playing a nice role so far.

With this officiating, this game is brutal to watch.

Why no Okobo when we so badly need offense?

I just got it for the first time in at least 5 years. Thought I saw a great Spectrum deal with internet and cable for like 50 and could add Showtime and HBO to make it like 70. But then I got two boxes, DVR, and after fees and taxes it ended up like $127 a month somehow. I like having during football season and having NFL network, NBAtv and a lot of sports channels along with the premium channels and really like DVR but will probably only keep it for like 5 months...maybe through basketball season.

Going to be a lot of nights like this. We don't have a starting caliber 3. With Rubio and Oubre starting, just don't see how you can win in the NBA with two of your three perimeter players who can't shoot.

There will always be free streams. Luckily I know someone with Fox Sports AZ and have their cox login though so I just pull it up and get all the Suns coverage, pregame, postgame and stuff. Did you say you were moving back to Phx? Either way if you know someone there you might see if you can get their cox log in, even if you send them a little dough. It's great seeing all the old stuff before and after games too.


I bought LP for the first time this year. Even if we suck im ok with it. Just was sick of the extra effort to find a stream and some of them not being great.

Looking forward to getting to watch a few more other games too plus full suns replays


I don't know anyone in AZ that has cable unfortunately. I plan on moving back sometime in the future, just not sure when. Last year I bought the $250 package that included no commercials and could see the halftime show and the timeouts and everything. I like to watch other NBA games as well. Funny though I didn't really watch the playoffs.

Literally everything I want to watch I can find for free on the internet. Until companies come down with their ridiculous pricing, that's where I'll continue to watch things.

The DVR is probably the biggest reason to keep it. On Demand is also nice except if the show is from a regular channel and you can't skip the ads. Problem is that there's just not that many shows I'm interested in these days except for sports and watching local news while eating. But I'm not the only one using the TV so there's that.

Bridges should absolutely be the starter over Oubre in my view.
